Suspended driving licenses in Pernambuco
There are almost 170,000 drivers with an irregular license in Pernambuco. According to Detran-PE, the real number is 167 thousand drivers. With that, all of them will have to take a refresher course to be able to drive again.

Of this total of 167,000 drivers who will have their driver's license suspended, 3,000 licenses may be suspended due to the sum of 40 points (the sum changed from 20 to 40 points after changes to the Brazilian Traffic Code - CTB, in 2021).
And in relation to CNHs that will be suspended due to infractions that generate suspension, the numbers are divided as follows way: 103,811 processes for suspension of portfolios are in the opening phase and 59,363 are being processed in different phases.
